 Handbook of Industrial and Hazardous Wastes Treatment
Environmental managers, engineers, and scientists who have had experience with
industrial and hazardous waste management problems have noted the need for a
handbook that is comprehensive in its scope, directly applicable to daily waste
management problems of specific industries, and widely acceptable by practicing
environmental... | | | | Polyurethane and Related Foams: Chemistry and Technology
Polyurethane foams debuted over 60 years ago. At the present time these types
of foams make up the largest segment in the thermosetting foam industry.
This book describes polyurethane (PUR) and urethane linkage-modified
polyisocyanurate (PIR) foams. A characteristic of these foams lies in the
versatility of their physical... |

Marine Biofouling: Colonization Processes and Defenses
Recent instances of bioinvasion, such as the emergence of the zebra mussel in the American Great Lakes, generated a demand among marine biologists and ecologists for groundbreaking new references that detail how organisms colonize hard substrates, and how to prevent damaging biomass concentrations.
Marine Biofouling:... | | Vanadium: Chemistry, Biochemistry, Pharmacology and Practical Applications
The first comprehensive resource on the chemistry of vanadium, Vanadium: Chemistry, Biochemistry, Pharmacology, and Practical Applications has evolved from over a quarter century of research that concentrated on delineating the aqueous coordination reactions that characterize the vanadium(V) oxidation state. The authors distill... | | Digital Imaging for Cultural Heritage Preservation: Analysis, Restoration, and Reconstruction of Ancient Artworks
Paintings, frescoes, antique photographic prints, incunabula, old books, handwritten documents,
sculptures, ceramic fragments, and other ancient manufacts constitute the elements of an extremely
valuable and immense historical patrimony. The digitalization of these treasures opens up the
possibility of using image processing and... |

Methods of Analysis for Functional Foods and Nutraceuticals, Second Edition
Functional foods and nutraceuticals encompasses a wide variety of topics ranging
from foods with positive health attributes to even dietary supplements. The analysis
of this diverse category can create its own set of challenges since sometimes it is not
known what is the active agent. Hence an analyst looks for a marker compound,... | | Pharmacoethics: A Problem-Based Approach (Plant Engineering Series)
About 20 years ago, the University of New Mexico School of Medicine (SOM)
established a student-centered problem-based learning (PBL) curriculum
emphasizing ambulatory care practice competencies. It was designed for small
groups of students working together and ran parallel with their more traditional
curriculum. The SOM... | | |

| | Electric Refractory Materials
This book provides a state-of-the-art overview of electric refractory materials as exotic materials
(i.e., metallic and semiconducting refractory materials) from fundamental properties to application
in a wide variety of electronics. The metallic ceramics or metalloids are the transition metal
carbides, nitrides, and diborides of... | | Remote Sensing of Snow and Ice
Although our planet is characterized by water, the extent to which water in its
frozen state plays a role in the functioning of the Earth is perhaps underappreciated.
Snow and ice cover about a sixth of the Earth’s surface, as snow
lying on the ground, as glaciers and larger masses of terrestrial ice, including
the huge... |
